After simple welcome and introduction speech, all the participants were asked to go to their so-called working station as the competition is going to begin pretty soon. Just so you know that, they need to decorate pre-baked cupcakes according to their submission entry for the Celcom Cupcake Challenge. I was pretty much excited to see all of their creations!

I somehow could not believe with my own eyes that they can be that creative and showing their skills in decorating the cupcakes! Although I'm quite puzzled with certain contestants on how they managed to enter the grand finale with putting very very less effort on this, if you know what I mean and I guess that's how powerful with getting likes on their simple and no details cupcake decorations. Oh well, good thing about this competition would be the final decision will be based on the fellow judges. Let me share some photos of cucpcake decorations done by some of the participants and tell me if you're amazed by them too!
